I'm aware of the issue with the AGP standard, so please don't rag
on me about moving on to the PCI-e o PCI-X thing.

My only comment would be that by doing this you are restricting your choice of
motherboard to a tiny handful of those available. AGP is pretty much a dead
standard and I doubt if you'll find many motherboards available now. PCiE is
widespread and SNAP works with a fair number of PCiE video cards - the ATI
X300SE is the one I have in use but there are others that you can still buy I am
sure.
